Stevns Klint
Stevns Klint is a cliff east of Stevns that stretches 17 km and rises to a height of 41 metres from the sea. It was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 2014. Stevns Klint is the best place in the whole world to see evidence – in the form of a layer of fish clay – of one of the greatest natural disasters and mass extinctions in the history of the Earth. Enjoy nature, see the fish clay and learn about geology, fossils and the extinction of the dinosaurs.

Roskilde - 30 km from the hotel:

Roskilde Cathedral and the royal tombs
Roskilde Cathedral is considered one of the most important church buildings in Denmark and one of the most important monuments in general, due to its unique architecture and its connection to Danish history. The cathedral was built during the 12th and 13th centuries as the first brick-built, Gothic-style cathedral in Scandinavia, but today it reflects 800 years of changing architectural styles.
The cathedral has been the royal family's burial church for centuries and contains 38-40 royal tombs: 19-21 kings and 19 queens. The cathedral was added to the UNESCO World Heritage List in 1995.

The Viking Ship Museum
The Viking Ship Museum is Denmark’s national museum for ships, seafaring and boatbuilding culture from the Viking Age through to the Middle Ages. Through exhibitions, research and experimental archaeology, the museum seeks to create a living and modern museum that makes our maritime history interesting and relevant to visitors today. 

Ragnarock
Ragnarock's 1,200 m2 main exhibition space consists of 11 themes that present the story of how music and youth have pushed boundaries and influenced society over the years. Take part in a captivating journey through the history and development of music and youth from the 1950s onwards – a journey that engages, activates and makes you sweat.

Copenhagen - 50 km from the hotel:

Tivoli
Tivoli Gardens is an amusement park located in the centre of Copenhagen close to Central Station and Strøget. The park is the world's second oldest of its kind, surpassed only by Bakken. Walt Disney drew a great deal of inspiration from Tivoli, which is almost magical when in full bloom with some of Denmark’s most beautiful perennials, flowers and shrubs. Enjoy a walk in the beautiful garden with historic buildings, cosy nooks and fun-filled squeals.

ZOO
Copenhagen Zoo is one of Europe’s oldest zoos, where you can see more than 4,000 fascinating animals and cross continents in a pull-along wagon. Come and see the iconic pandas and enjoy a meal alongside these bamboo-eating bears in the magnificent Panda House. You can get so close to the polar bears that it will give you chills, or see the world from above like a giraffe.

Nearest Places to Swim
The finest white wide sandy beach is just a two-minute walk from the hotel. Take a refreshing summer dip or enjoy the view, the smell of summer and sea and feel the sand between your toes. At Køge Marina, 3 km from the hotel, you'll find the beautiful harbour bath where you can also enjoy life by the water.

Nearest ice cream parlour
Is there anything better than ice cream on a hot Danish summer day? Just 4 min. walk from the hotel you'll find the local ice-cream parlour - a great destination for an evening stroll or just when you're in need of ice cream. If you like large ice creams, we can recommend the ice cream parlour ‘Provianten’ at Køge Marina.

Nearest Shopping Area
Køge Torv must be one of Denmark's most cosy and popular squares. The paved square and the small, cosy shopping streets with old, charming houses are the perfect backdrop for a stroll through the streets, where you will find a sea of small, cosy specialty shops. Køge Torv is 1 kilometre from the hotel.

Nearest green area
Solgårdsparken, which is just 7 min. walk from the hotel, is well worth a visit. And we highly recommend a walk in the Botanical Garden, which is part of the park. Here you can see hundreds of plant species and flowers. If you prefer the more unspoilt nature of the forest, visit the beech forest, which is the hotel's neighbour. Here you'll find plenty of paths for walking and cycling.

Nearest attractions
There are many attractions in and around Køge. Two of the most famous are Vallø Slotspark (3 km from the hotel) and Gl. Kjoegegaard (2 km from the hotel). Our favourite is Køge Ås, a 3.2 km. historical trail with 5 burial mounds from the Bronze Age.

Nearest picnic spot
The beach, the neighbouring forest and the lawn that separates the hotel from the beach are ideal for a picnic. We recommend you borrow a blanket, lie down on the grass and relax and enjoy the summer in the open air. Alternatively, you can enjoy a summer moment on our terrace with a good book and a view of the water.

Nearest golf course
Not far from the hotel is Køge Golf Club, which has some of Zealand's most beautiful 9 and 18 hole courses.
